Slow Marching Band — текст песни (Jethro Tull)

Would you join a slow marching band?

And take pleasure in your leaving

As the ferry sails and tears are dried

And cows come home at evening.



Could you get behind a slow marching band?

And join together in the passing

Of all we shared through yesterdays

In sorrows neverlasting.



Take a hand and take a bow.

You played for me; thats all for now, oh, and never

Mind the words just hum along and keep on going.

Walk on slowly --- dont look behind you.

Dont say goodbye, love. I wont remind you.



Dream of me as the nights draw cold

Still marking time through winter.

You paid the piper and called the tune

And you marched the band away.



Take a hand and take a bow.

You played for me; thats all for now, oh, and never

Mind the words just hum along and keep on going.

Walk on slowly --- dont look behind you.

Dont say goodbye, love. I wont remind you.
